[national anthem] ♪ ♪ charlie: good sunday morning, and welcome to "fox & friends" weekend. good morning to you all. >> good morning. rachel: i was smiling at that little soldier we just had on the anthem there, he was adorable. can we pull that back up? charlie: yeah, i love these pictures. rachel: they can't get it up. [laughter] it reminded me when pete hegseth, his kids would also a play soldiers. lisa: oh, cute. it's fitting too. rachel: yeah, exactly. thank you all for bringing in our -- lisa: defense secretary. early. charles: especially the kids in

uniforms, we need more masculinity in america. rachel: we saw a little bit last night. charlie: we sure did. trump walking into the wrestling championship in philadelphia was truly, truly baller. look at the crowd. and these are high school wrestlers. they're, like, and college wrestlers. they're bananas. and if you know wrestlers, they're really intense people, and they're very -- it's a very sort of, you know, it's a sport that the you have to -- it's like a mind game. rachel: yeah. charlie: and, it's, like, it's all self-control. it's truly amazing, and the crowd can went absolutely wild. rachel: yeah, erupted. truly. and this is, again, one of those sports that doesn't get as much attention as, like, football and basketball. jim jordan, a bigtime wrestler in congress, like you said, a

very intense sport. donald trump feels right at home here. lisa: think how cool it would be if you were in college, and the president of the united states is there in the flesh, also one you respect are, elon musk is right there. how cool. what i love about this too is but look at this reception that he's getting or, president trump's the undisputed people's champ, right? what's so funny is all these people who have tried the headache him down only end up taking down themselves. you look at the things they've tried to do to him, they have the lowest approval ratings ever. if or the media tried to destroy him, now they've destroyed themselves. charlie: and it's general win on both sides. listen to the reaction of trump. [cheers and applause] >> the president of the united states, donald trump, in attendance tonight at the wells

fargo center. >> usa! usa! usa! usa! charlie: and it's a reminder of how much smarter trump 2.0 was than even trump 2.1 or 1.0. trump 1.0 was pretty smart campaigning, but in the second campaign, they recognized all of these other areas where they could meet -- reach out, find new people, people who were not normally part of the political process, and especially young people and engage them. when you look at some of the -- he did ultimate fighting -- rachel: yeah. charlie: he went to all of these events. rachel: and the podcast. the digital man ison -- manospear. -- manosphere. he was asked about this, and he

went right back to the real message about when with this is -- what this is about. listen. >> it's all coming together. the country's coming together. ed the one of the biggest chip companies, the biggest in the world announced they're going to spend $200 billion. apple ooh's going to spend $500 billion. johnson and johnson announced yesterday, tens of billions of dollars. and we have numbers like we've never seen before. there's never been anything like it. the border has zero, you know, outside of the border used to be so full, it would go miles down deep into mexico, right in there's not a person on the -- [inaudible] they have somewhere sweeping it. -- somebody sweeping i. and, by the way, it had nothing to do, we doesn't change the law. just said, don't come. and i think they see it's working. rachel: clay asked them, why

don't they like you? and he's, like, let me tell you the good thing that are happening. [laughter] lisa: he repeatedly said success will unite the country. rachel: yes. lisa: it was something, i can't remember the poll, on the night of the joint days they announce there had been something like almost $2 trillion of investments already in the country. he talked about apple there as well. that's more than biden had in all four years -- [laughter] which really shows you success will unite the country, and he's succeeding. and thank god for everyone, right? it's good for all of us. rachel: talk about successful companies. one of them is tesla, and tesla under attack by with liberals who have decided that the elon musk should pay a price for having uncovered their corrupt money laundering through our taxpayers' dollars and usaid and semi other organizations -- so many other organizations inside of our government that were

funneling money to ngos which in turn funneled back into the democrat party. it was just a scam. and elon musk uncovered it, charlie, and this is what he got for it. charlie: yeah. and ten minutes ago all these people were with on the other side of this this, and they thought that elon musk was the greatest, tesla was the the greatest, they went out and bought the teslas -- actually, i take it back. tease people were not buying teslas. these people are rent-a-protesters. they do not contribute anything to society. they don't buy things, they don't -- they don't work, they don't have jobs, they just do this. and, you know, or it reminds me of something you were saying yesterday, rachel. you know, we should find out who's paying for all of this. rachel: yeah. charlie: i guarantee you, these people who are bombing -- fire bombing teslas, that's not a normal democrat.

that's not a normal person who objects to donald trump. these are whackos, and we should find out who's bankrolling these things. rachel: trump mentioned the signs all look the same, they're all well printed, they're well funded and, clearly, this is organized. as charlie aptly said, rent-a a-mob. lisa: the problem is these people get a wink-wink, nod-nod from party leaders. it was maxine waters who said get up in their faces and get out and cause commotion, right? so they get a wink-wink, nod-nod from party leaders, and the left, they're like the kid who they lose a game, right, ask they just knock it over. no one else can play except replace knocking it over with fire bombs. and it's because president trump has dismantled their power structure, is they don't know what to do. rachel: that's right. these protests are going all

over the country. their goal is to tell people not just the vandalize and all the things you've been seeing, but they literally are very explicit. they want to drive the stock price down and stop elon musk, they claim, from stealing democracy and from, you know, being a nazi. that's the other accusation. here's what elon has said in response. >> it turns out when you take away people's, you know, the money they're receiving fraudulently, they get very upset, and they basically want to kill me because with i'm stopping their fraud. and they want to hurt tesla because we're stopping this terrible waste and corruption in the government. and, well, e guess they're bad people -- i guess they're bad people. bad people do bad things. rachel: simple stuff. lisa: yeah. exactly. rachel: we spent ten minutes on this and he's, like, two seconds.

[laughter] charlie: but it is true. i mean, people don't like -- they like their scams. they don't want to lose their scams. rachel: very simple. charlie: and it's human nature. and, of course, our entire government is built around human nature. and you've got a guy like elon who understands that better than a lot of our own regular politicians. and if you're wondering how fundamentally unserious these people are, you have people like minnesota governor tim walz talking about trying the trash -- to trash tesla's stock price even though, of course, the minnesota pension fund has tesla stock. so basically he's arguing in favor of tanking the minnesota pension fund. rachel: watch. >> they've got that little stock app? if i added tesla to it to give me a little boost during the day. [laughter] 225 and dropping.

[cheers and applause] if you own one, we're not blaming you with. you can, you can take dental floss and pull the tesla thing off. rachel: and then he got some blowback, tampon tim did, and then he decided to walk it back a little bit because, of course, as you mentioned, his own constituents in minnesota have investments through their public pension funds in tesla, and so here's what he had to say. >> this guy bugs me in a way that probably is unhealthy. [laughter] [cheers and applause] but i, i have to be careful about being a a smart [bleep] i was making a joke. these people have no sense of humor. they are the most literal people. charlie: because he's so funny. he's a real comedian. rachel: did you see him decorating his christmas tree with his wife? lisa: no, now i need to see it though. what happened? rachel: it must be seen, right, charlie? charlie: it's painful.

rachel: it's so bad. lisa: these people, it's like a 50-50. is he too dumb to know that he's talking about the destruction of his own state and people, or does he know and he's just that evilville, he doesn't -- evil, he count care? do you remember the elizabeth warren one when she's in her own house drinking beer and trying to be normal, and she turns the her husband, great seeing you here. of course he's there, it's his house. rachel: that was possibly the most awkward political moment of all time. i this what we're yo -- i think what you're seeing is it's not just trump decan rangement syndrome, it's elon derangement. when you don't have religion in your own life and you replace it with politics, it drives you crazy. there's no comfort in billion ticks. it's just not going to -- in billion ticks. that's what you're seeing, you're seeing a complete meltdown. meanwhile, over at the fbi kash

patel continues along the same vein as elon musk, rooting out corruption. yesterday he was on with "sunday night in america," and here's what he had to say. or tonight -- >> i want the american public to know too we've had problems at the fbi, we are going to hold ourselves internally accountable for those meting out justice who have the privilege to wear the gun and the badge. where hose missteps have been taken, we've already eliminated those people from the rolls of the f or bi, and we will continue to vigorously upheld on a 24/7/365 basis as vigorously as we pursue violent crime those that abuse, corrupt or violate their oath of office at the fbi. i will not stand for it. i will have zero tolerance. if there's someone in this building that is doing harm to the american public, they're going to hear about it through prosecutions. there is no corner on this earth we will not chase down a violent criminal, and there is no sector of the public we will not root

out corruption and make sure the american people know what has happened, because that's what they deserve. charlie: it's a little bit like the elon musk thing, talking about the rooting out corruption. what the trump administration wants to do and what kash patel wants to do at the fbi and is make the fbi more effective, honest, transparent and more -- and better able to do their job. and democrats freak out and say, you're trying to destroy the fbi! no, you're trying to make it more effective and make it more honest and make it more transparent so that it actually benefits the taxpayers who are funding it and give them the authority to do what they do in the first place. a. rachel: it's just kind of, also, let's admit there's a little bit of trolling going on here when donald trump puts kash patel ask dan bongino in charge of the fbi. charlie: true. rachel: let's be honest, there is reason for liberal heads to explode. it is just so delicious.

and all i ask of this fbi is find me the pipe bomber that. 's the only thing i want -- that's the only thing i want. [laughter] lisa: also just imagine an fbi that tries to protect its own people. kash patel made this great statement, he said his to objective is to make sure we don't have 100,000 rapes in the country, 100,000 drug overdoses from chinese fentanyl and mexican heroin and make sure we don't have 17,000 homicides. and imagine if the doj and fbi hadn't been singularly focused on january 6th, the largest criminal investigation in the fbi's history, we wouldn't have had the 1000 100,000 -- 100,000 rapes and drug overdoses -- rachel: do you know what else, lisa? i've interviewed fbi agents who were whistleblowers on my podcast, and they said i was taken off of child pedophile cases and put on january 6th. if i mean, just think about. that's. lisa: yeah, that's evil. pure evil.

charlie: and it's a reminder of what a good marketer donald trump is, because everybody agrees with those, you know, those principles and those objectives. you can catch the entire interview with kash patel on "sunday night in america" with trey gowdy tonight at a 99 p.m. rachel: i said it aired tonight, but we're just at 6 a.m.. it's taped ahead of time -- charlie: well, you've been kind of busy. lisa: also it's 6 a.m., let the caffeine kick in. all right, as we do that, we're turning now to your headlines. crowds gathering outside of gemelli hospital in rome right now as a pope francis is set to be discharged today. the 88-year-old pontiff is expected to make his first public appearance in five weeks at some point later this morning. pope francis has been hospitalized since february 14th while recovering from double pneumonia. he has been prescribed an additional two months of rest.

[cheers and applause] goes. lisa: the last few games of the tournament's epping round -- opening round. also go, vols. and this, is it a red flag if your partner won't share their passwords? ultimately, it depends. a therapist working with the relationship app paired the telling fuse we'll this: the

issue a-- "newsweek": one partner refuses to be open about it. that app releasing this poll revealing that more than 40% of couples say they share at least some of their passwords while 38% say they share everything. and 13% claim they don't share -- okay, so married couples -- rachel: let's go to single first. [laughter] lisa: okay. well, i don't know, i don't think i've ever shared passwords with anyone i've dated not because i would care if they're on my phone. one, i think if you're asking for someone's password, wouldn't the implication be you don't trust them? i don't know. rachel: no. by -- i don't know if this is a married if perspective. i don't know of -- any of my passwords. if my husband didn't have them, i'd be with lost in the universe. [laughter] lisa: i know for a fact because you told us -- charlie: to me, a red flag is if

you're with someone who can come up with good passwords, you're with a dishonest person. if your password is not your dog's name or your daughter's birthday, then you're probably a pretty dishonest person. rachel: can i tell you one thing that concerns me? bitcoin. so my husband buys these things that have passwords, and i'm afraid if he does i'm going to lose a lot of money that i didn't even know existed. [laughter] charlie: you're going to lose -- rachel: i don't know how to use this stuff. charlie: bitcoin empire that you didn't know you had. lisa: or you could be sitting on it and -- rachel: by the way, i've told him this, and he's explain plained it, he explains it to me and it's just like it e evaporates in my -- charlie: does he hide the passwords? rachel: no, he's told me how to do this -- charlie: this is another reason to have a lot of kids.

rachel: they can hack into things -- charlie: we would like you to e-mail us, friends@foxnews.com, and tell us whether you're sharing your passwords with your significant othersment. rachel: i think you nailed this one, charlie. the you're not sharing your pass worsts and you're married, you're not trustworthy. charlie: no, if you are capable of coming -- you know how it goes red, red, red, weak, weak, weak, strong, i can't ever get into the strong. the doing's name -- rachel: translate the dog's name into spanish. i do the spanish, and suddenly it gets -- charlie: that'll help me because i'm so good at spanish. lisa: how long have you -- oh, we've got to go. rachel: all right, we'll go. more "fox & friends" coming up. charlie: mas "fox & friends." you'll have your home feeling...

charlie: president trump looking to end his dispute with maine governor janet mills once and for all and demanding a, quote, full-throated apology from the democrat mayor who has been silent on protecting women's sports before fully restoring federal funding. joining us now is maine representative the laurel libby. you know, from the outside it kind of looks like janet mills completely folded in the face of president trump's threats. but i think you have a slightly different and perhaps more, a better informed view of it. >> governor mills is trying to pull a fast one here. she has no intention of removing biological peals from girls' sports -- males from girls' sports in maine. we heard thisst last week with that the university of maine system has said that they will come ply with title ix, but guess what? they've never had biological males participating in girls' sports.

it's actually at the high school level, not the college level, where we've seen biological males participating in girls a' sports in maine. and governor mills, the democrat majority have no intention whatsoever of changing their policy, let alone apologizing to president trump. charlie: okay. so that's absolutely mind-blowing. so the problem is actually even worse than what we think because it's, you know, at the college level it's bad, but the idea that it's at the high school level is even worse. is there anything that president can do about that? at the high school level? >> well, the question remains the same, it's the federal funding issue. when you look at the k-12 level, there are hundreds of millions of dollars at stake here. and that's the level where we need to see the trump administration taking action. and, lull absolutely, polling through on their promise,

unfortunately, to take federal funding and insure that maine does not receive that. it's the only way that maine girls will see a fair, safe and level playing field. and, unfortunately, at the same time that will harm maine students, but i think that's the only recourse we have many our state. charlie: yeah. so this is one of those issue is that i think in ten years we're going to have to look back and try to explain to our kids this was an issue because it makes no sense. so, you know, i think that normal democrats don't support any of this stuff. do you get the sense that some of your democrat colleagues in maine realize what a loser this is and, hopefully, more importantly, huh dangerous this is and -- how dangerous this is and how bad this is for children and that maybe they should get sort of in league with you guys to actually try to fix some of this at the high school level? >> everyday mainers, absolutely, across party lines understand it's common sense, biological

males don't have a place in girls' sports. unfortunately at the legislative level, we don't necessarily see that same response. the democrats over the years have primaried out their more reasonable counterparts, and so we have really extremists at the statehouse level. and that's why i see recourse necessary from the federal level versus the state level and anything legislatively. charlie: well, thank you so much for putting up the good fight and keep us informed on how things are going up there in maine. this is not how our political leaders are supposed to be behaving. thank you so much. nearly 400 suspected illegal gang members arrested in just 100 days. a former i.c.e. director tells us what this means for national security. that's next. ♪ but as for me ♪ (knock at door) ♪ i'll wait and see ♪ ♪ and maybe it'll bring my love to me ♪
